Whilst these pages seem full of positivity at the minute, now seems the right time to ask the question. Anyone else think Rom might be staying? If ambitions was the issue, I think we've shown it in abundance.
In my opinion there are only 3 clubs who would seem a likely fit for him. Bayern (who I can't see paying much for him) , Man Utd and Chelsea with the last two seemingly preferring Lewandowski, Belotti and Marotta. Where dies Rom seems to fit in to the 'wants. And has he been clever I saying his 'I know where I'll be playing' and 'everything is being sorted' without actually sayi g he will DEFINATELY be leaving us. Coukd he backtrack and say it was us who he was re-re-re-sorting it out with.
At the minute, I don't think a striker who can guarantee the goals in the premiership like he can would be on our radar, I terms of age, proven record, wages etc.
It's one I can't make my mind on at the moment.
But at the minute I'm just enjoying this ride. Havent been this excited since the birth if my kids. Haha.

Personally can't see him wanting to stay Kingo but that shouldn't dampen our moods. Feels like the players we are bringing in are of a much higher standard than what we would have been bringing in in previous transfer windows.
Also nice to see us getting business done early.
Good times ahead.

Hi Kingo mate, I reckon Rom will stay, a lot of tripe written in the rags, it sees to me all this rubbish seems to do is turn the fans against him, at the end of the day if he goes he goes, his goals are good but he just doesn't seem to turn up at the big games, it's only my opinion of course but I reckon R K will have someone special lined up if he goes, chees GuernseyBlue, ps Happy Days ahead.

Agreed GB. Wont lose sleep if he goes. His all round play is certainly not worth the 70-100 million we are apparantely asking for. However, if he stays, which I think and hope he will, he will have to sign a new contract.

I hope to God he goes and quickly. We are building a TEAM and we don't need any distractions or egos.

In fairness to him, football is a job and Everton pay his wages. Nobody can criticize anyone for showing ambition, just the way he has gone about it perhaps. If he stays (because he now actually thinks we match his own ambitions) , signs a new deal, learn from his mistakes, continues to bang in the goals and continue to develop along with the club, us fickle fans will soon forgive.

The one thing about Rom. easy to forget. mina raiola. it's not good business for him to keep Rom at goodison. from day 1 that guy said he was too big for Everton. and he's been telling him so and touting him all over Europe ever since. I'd be gob smacked if Rom stays. the sooner raiola isn't meddling in Everton affairs the better.
